At 8:30 in the morning.

There is a small hall on the west side of the conference center, where people from the Standing Committee of the School Committee are inside. After a glance, you will know that there are about a dozen people. The committee review is not completely closed. There are also several old academicians watching in the back row and at the door.

The candidates sat inside, the door was closed, and they didn't know what was going on in the conference hall.

Zhao Yi pushed the door open and walked in, and immediately met an acquaintance, Professor Huang Zhong from Nancheng University.

"Professor Zhao Yi, here."

Huang Zhong stood up enthusiastically and waved to the door. The others also looked over with enthusiasm. They were not that familiar with Zhao Yi, so they did not go directly to take care of them.

Zhao Yi walked to Huang Zhong and sat down, nodded friendly to the others. He took a closer look and found that there were only five academician candidates in the room, including him and Huang Zhong?

He hadn't cared about how many candidates there were, and asked in surprise, "There are only a few of us in this additional election?"

Everyone else looked over with weird expressions.

Zhao Yi didn't understand at first, but suddenly thought of what Liu Hemin said, "Several candidates who participated abstained from the right." He suddenly felt a little embarrassed. The number of people was so small that there were only five. Perhaps, maybe, maybe it was his own reason?

In fact, it is because Zhao Yi participated in the additional election of academicians this year that many nominated candidates simply gave up, which also led to insufficient number of candidates for academicians in the Department of Mathematics and Physics.

This year, there are seven additional places for academicians in the Department of Mathematics and Physics, but only five people are left after the second round of screening.

However, a small number of people does not mean that you can choose.

Occasionally, there will be more candidates than the number of additional candidates, but according to the voting rules, academician candidates need to obtain two-thirds of the votes in the school.

This is very difficult.

There are more than 100 academicians in the Department of Mathematics and Physics. The "senior academicians" do not participate in the voting. In addition, the academicians who abstain from participating in the additional election meeting, the total number of votes is also more than 60.

Sixty people, two-thirds of them agreed, that is, forty votes are needed.

So the candidates for academicians sitting here, including Huang Zhong, are a little nervous. They know that the next committee review process is very important, and the members of the committee have the right to vote. If they can perform well and convince them to vote, the possibility of successfully being elected as academicians will be higher.

In addition, some people are also worried about the review process.

The Standing Committee of the School Department reviewed the candidates for "making things difficult" and it was not that it really made things difficult, but that it was about asking candidates for some other issues, because the selection of academicians looked at two aspects, one was academic achievements and the other was academic ethics.

Some academic committee members will ask some tricky results and study questions. If they cannot answer them, they may be suspected of academic ethics.

This is all possible things.

Although they also know a lot of people in the Department of Mathematics and Physics, not everyone is familiar with them, and they may encounter difficulties.

Huang Zhong was also very worried.

Like Zhao Yi, Huang Zhong participated in the additional election for the first time, and was also the second youngest among candidates (the youngest one was Zhao Yi). While waiting in the room, he talked to Zhao Yi and found out some "rumors" about the school department review and the additional election vote, and he clearly showed concerns in his words.

"Don't worry, it's okay. The first one should be me, right? I'll ask you for some information in advance."

Zhao Yi comforted Huang Zhong and said.

soon.

At the beginning of the internal review of the Standing Committee of the School, Zhao Yi was called to the small conference hall by the staff. He walked to the front, in the middle, almost at the podium.

This should be a self-introduction.

Zhao Yi looked at the dozens of eyes in the audience, but was not nervous at all, because several of them were acquaintances, including those who came to ask the 'supersymmetric problem' yesterday to argue. He calmly introduced himself, "I am Zhao Yi, a professor of mathematics at Yanhua University..."

"Main mathematical and physical achievements include, proof of the Gorgeous Valley conjecture, shaping and argumentation of three-dimensional tremor waveform charts, and argumentation of weakening the twin prime conjecture..."

"Proof of Goldbach's conjecture..."

"Ferma guess..."

"In quantum physics research, I used a computer screening method to discover the signal of Higgs particles. At the beginning of this year, the European nuclear...

Zhao Yi didn't say a single result, and the people in the audience pulled the corners of their mouths hard.

He did not pay attention to the reactions of the people below the audience, but continued to introduce them, "He is currently studying multidimensional space..."

"Ahem!"

A middle-aged man with a national face in the front row finally couldn't help but wave his hand and interrupted, "Professor Zhao Yi, that's it. You passed, no need to continue. We will vote for you in the afternoon, don't worry."

"That's it?"

Zhao Yi was a little confused, "Then I..."

"It's time to leave."

"No...this..." Zhao Yi lowered his head and glanced at the 'speech'. He was preparing to make a ten-minute statement. The first was just a brief introduction, and the next was a report on the field of 'analytical number theory'. He also relied on the achievements of the mathematical branch 'analytical number theory' as the basis for selecting academicians.

result……

I just said it and it ended. Wouldn’t the ‘preparation’ be done in vain?

He was a little unwilling and regretful, and looked at the others in the small conference hall, and found that the others nodded neatly, with almost writing in his eyes, "You go quickly! No need to review!"

"Go away!"

"Don't waste time, change the next one!"

Zhao Yi walked back to the candidate's room with a little depressed feeling.

When he pushed open the door again, he felt much more relaxed. At least he had no problem reviewing this level. He said to Huang Zhong and others, "It's nothing, don't worry, the process is very simple, just introduce yourself."

"Don't be nervous."

"come on!"

Zhao Yi's comfort and encouragement are probably useful. The candidates of academicians who at least participated in the review passed the committee's review normally, and no one was directly eliminated.

Perhaps because there are more places to be added than candidates, there is no competitive relationship between candidates, and the atmosphere between them is pretty good, and there are people talking and laughing together.

By noon, the candidates were arranged to have dinner together.

After participating in the review, Zhao Yi was called to other conference halls and continued to discuss the analysis of supersymmetry with several academicians. He didn't know the review. He just came back at lunch. He asked with ease, "How is the morning review? It's very simple? I really didn't expect that I also prepared a copy..."

He didn't finish speaking.

The others' faces were a little dark.

The review of Zhao Yi by the Standing Committee of the School Department is indeed very simple. Some members think that the process does not need to be left, so they just give it to each other, but it will be different for others.

Compared to Zhao Yi, the results of others are much worse, so they naturally need to be carefully reviewed.

This is the responsibility of the Standing Committee of the School.

Their review is mainly aimed at academic achievements in order to prevent the problem of "academic ethics". If the subsequent disclosure of "a paper of a new academician's achievement is plagiarized and compiled", it will definitely become a great shame for the academic department. The Standing Committee of the academic department will be responsible for the first time, because they are responsible for the "academic ethics" review of candidate academicians.

So several other candidates were "difficult" by the Standing Committee.

Huang Zhong has been reviewed for the longest time because his results are theoretical physics and magnetic research on microscopic particles. It involves strong, weak, and particle mathematics that bring together can be imagined. It is very difficult to understand.

The review process can be said to be "the committee is making things difficult for Huang Zhong" or "the committee is making things difficult for Huang Zhong".

Although the members of the Standing Committee are all academicians of the academic department, academicians do not understand everything. There is a saying that goes, "Crossing industries is like crossing mountains", and this is even more so in the academic circle.

Mathematics and physics have many branches.

If you understand more knowledge in the ‘primary subject’, it will be too broad to enlarge it to mathematics. It is very difficult to understand other content across the ‘master subject’.

Zhao Yi could hear a lot of novel things from Huang Zhong's mouth. Not to mention scholars who have never studied particle mathematics, it is definitely a difficult challenge to understand Huang Zhong's explanation and think about the ideas and processes of research.

Fortunately, the review has ended.

Several candidates sat at the same dinner table, not talking about the "easy or not" of "the review is easy or not", and the atmosphere was also very good. Huang Zhong and four others were nervous about the afternoon academician vote and felt a little worried, but at this level, it was useless to worry.

"I can't get a rating this year, so I'll wait a few more years." Huang Zhong said, "Anyway, I'm just fifty and I still have a chance."

Actually, he is forty-nine years old.

The other three candidates are different. The oldest is already 67 years old. After passing the 66-year-old mark of "academician age stratified", six academicians need to be nominated together to become additional candidates for academicians.

If you miss this year's additional election for academicians, because there will be no more results in the future, there is a high probability that there will be no hope in this life.

but……

Actually, there is nothing worth sympathy.

"Academician" is the highest title of domestic scholars. For any group with hierarchical ranks, most professors are not qualified to participate in the additional election for life, let alone the academicians. Being qualified to participate in the academician selection is already an amazing achievement.

In addition, the title of academician is not an honorary certificate. If you cannot be evaluated as an academician when you are young, it will be difficult to achieve results when you are old. To some extent, it is also unfair to young scholars with fruitfulness.

On this point, Zhao Yi admired He Mingcheng very much.

He Mingcheng is very famous in the academic circle, but after he was over 60 years old, he had never participated in the election of academicians. He knew that he was unable to achieve great things, so he simply stopped doing anything.

Of course.

It is normal for some old professors to be a member of the academician and get the recognition of lifelong academic research. It can only be said that different personal positions and different ideas will be different.

...

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The Department of Mathematics and Physics officially held a meeting, and after a lot of complicated speeches, the voting process for additional elections for academicians was entered.

Candidates for additional candidates for academicians cannot enter the venue and can only wait outside the venue.

Because the meeting will take two to three hours and I am really impatient to wait outside, Zhao Yi simply went around the venue. If it weren't for the election meeting that the additional election was over, he would have to submit the materials to the school committee and hand it over to the presidium meeting for the review process, he would have wanted to go back to Yanhua University directly.
To be continued...
